AGC solar control glazing


for intelligent architecture
BRINGING YOUR VISION TO LIFE

Architects love glass, for it is the one material that has enabled all of the functional
features and design qualities found in modern architecture. Moreover, only high-
tech glass products are capable of meeting today’s expanding energy and aesthetic
requirements.

AGC’s extensive range of solar control coated glass products delivers concrete solutions
that offer you the right combination of solar and thermal performance. Aesthetically,
AGC products can meet any requirement: highly transparent or coloured glass, neutral
or reflective, curved, heat treated*, laminated or silkscreen printed. Architecture has
been liberated!

Make AGC your key partner so you can benefit from its expertise in coated glass
products and the many services it provides. Wherever you are, AGC is by your side
thanks to a sales network that spans the globe.

DIVERSIFIED, AESTHETIC AND MULTIFUNCTIONAL

AGC and Interpane joined forces in 2012, enabling them to offer an extensive network
along with optimised know-how and technology. The result is a glass portfolio that
offers faster access to our products and services worldwide. Our customers value
what is probably one of the widest ranges of high-tech coating solutions. By design,
these product types provide the greatest transparency coupled with the lowest energy
transmission.

Whether Stopray, ipasol, Stopsol or Sunergy, each of our products has demonstrated
its physical and aesthetic benefits in large prestigious and signature flagship projects
around the world.

* AGC recommends that clients opt to have a Heat Soak Test carried out on all orders of thermally toughened glass.

Solar control and improved


thermal insulation
STOPRAY

With Stopray, the neutrality and selectivity of solar control glass products are no longer
incompatible: the ratio of light transmission to solar factor for neutral Stopray glazing
approaches or exceeds a value of two.

This high-end soft coating is also available in a heat-treatable version, delivering


maximum freedom for architectural design.

A double or triple silver coating applied using magnetron sputtering in a vacuum


ensures optimal solar control in summer, while the particularly low Ug value prevents
heat loss in the winter.

What’s so special about it What does this mean for you?


Outstanding selectivity – Combines a low solar factor with high light transmission
(Tv to solar factor approaches or exceeds two).
Maximum energy efficiency – Optimal thermal insulation with a Ug value as low as
1.0 W/(m²K) in double glazing units.
Great design flexibility – Wide range of colours and reflection levels.

Stopray products are Cradle to Cradle CertifiedTM Silver

Flexibility for your


high-tech solution
IPASOL

ipasol is the perfect combination of aesthetics and functionality. The glass is renowned
the world over for its colour-neutrality, high transparency, low light reflection and
excellent solar control, making it possible to create facades with a particularly
transparent and filigreed appearance. At the same time, ipasol provides the broadest
range of solar control coatings for cut-to-size glass.

Triple silver coating versions of ipasol are also available to satisfy the highest
requirements in terms of light and energy transmission values.

Additional processing possibilities, such as silkscreen printing on the glass with the
coating on top of it, offer orginal aesthetics and complete the portfolio.

What’s so special about it What does this mean for you?


Outstanding selectivity – Lowest solar factor combined with the highest light transmission
(Tv to solar factor approaches or exceeds two).
High energy efficiency – Outstanding thermal insulation, with a Ug value as low as
1.0 W/(m²K) in double glazing units.
Great freedom of design – Huge number of variations and coatings of cut-to-size glass.

ipasol products are Cradle to Cradle CertifiedTM Silver

Also available as
OverSized Glass
in maxi formats
STOPRAY AND IPASOL

Worldwide demand for oversized glass products is growing.


Developed after extensive consultation with many cutting-edge
architects to achieve the maximum size possible, AGC have now
developed some of the world’s largest coated glass products:
OverSized Glass. The maximum deliverable size of Stopray and
ipasol solar control and iplus thermal insulation coatings on float
glass is an impressive 18 x 3.21 metres, with a glazing thickness
of up to 20 millimetres.

Projects using OverSized Glass are anything but standard. Through


a coordinated design process and careful planning, it is possible to
realise pioneering architectural designs that challenge technical
standards and push the boundaries of the built-up environment.
The materials, installation methods and logistical approach need
careful consideration and can be taken care of by our specialist
teams.

Our Technical Advisory Service (TAS) will be happy to help you.

Functionality combined
with aesthetics
SUNERGY

As a solar control glass with a pyrolytic coating that can be heat treated, Sunergy is
particularly easy to process and is often chosen for curved, coloured or neutral facades
worldwide. It delivers low light reflection similar to soft coatings.

Its high level of light transmission creates a bright daylight atmosphere indoors and
gives the facade a particularly transparent quality.

What’s so special about it What does this mean for you?


Top design flexibility – Pyrolytic coating (online deposition). Can be used as
single-pane, insulating or laminated glazing and heat treated
or enamelled. Large range of substrate colours available.
Functional – High light transmission, low light reflection and
neutral appearance.
High energy efficiency – High thermal insulation with a Ug value as low as 1.0 W/( m²K)
in double glazing units in combination with a low-E glass.
Processing benefits – Easy to process and can be stored for many years.

Solar control and privacy


STOPSOL

Glass processors frequently require glazing with flexible design qualities that can be
used for a variety of purposes. Stopsol uses a pyrolytic coating that renders the glass
easily heat-treatable and bendable. Suitable as single glass, laminated glass or part of
an insulating glazing unit, it also offers the possibility of decorative ceramic printing
on both surfaces.

Of particular use in densely built-up cities, the highly reflective surface delivers
increased privacy and outstanding aesthetics. Stopsol is available in different colours
and architects can leverage different combinations of solar factor, light transmission,
light reflection and aesthetics.

Three types of Stopsol coatings are available (Classic, Supersilver and Silverlight),
enabling even more creativity.

What’s so special about it What does this mean for you?


High flexibility – Pyrolytic coating (online deposition). Can be used as single-
pane, insulating or laminated glazing and heat treated or
enamelled. Large range of substrate colours available.
Privacy – Protects privacy due to its high level of light reflection
when viewed from the outside.
Processing benefits – Easy to process and can be stored for many years.

Custom products in just one day


COATING ON DEMAND

AGC can now create custom glazing in just one day thanks to our Coating on Demand
service.

Coating on Demand (CoD) allows architects to develop unique coated glass products
for facades and windows tailored precisely to their needs. A prototype product can be
manufactured during a one-day development session. The technical specifications and
optical properties are individually defined.

The service is powered by AGC’s virtual prototyping software, capable of delivering


a true representation of coated glass in its environment and under various climate
conditions based on all of the glazing’s physical values. Customers can fine-tune light
transmission, light reflection and colour to find the perfect solution for their project.
Once all the technical characteristics and aesthetic features have been defined, the
programme runs a feasibility check and, where necessary, optimises the configuration.
The first physical glass samples are then produced directly at the plant in the afternoon.

In addition to custom coatings, CoD delivers another key benefit: slashing the time
you need to select the right product to just one day. The end result is a unique product
that an architect and investor can use to create their own iconic building, as AGC will
not use the same solution for any other project anywhere in the world.

Coating on Demand is Cradle to Cradle CertifiedTM Silver
